Waaree Transpower, the transformer solutions subsidiary of Waaree Energies, has secured an order worth approximately ₹1.6 billion (~$16 million) to supply 8.3 MVA medium-voltage (MV)  applications from an undisclosed global energy storage technology and solutions provider.

Shipments under the order began in July 2026.

The MV skid is an International Electrotechnical Commission standards-compliant, containerized system developed for battery energy storage applications.

According to Waaree Transpower, the equipment is integrated into a 20-foot container to facilitate transportation, installation, and deployment across project locations. The company said the system’s shippable and stackable configuration is designed for use in large-scale battery storage projects.

The latest order aims to support Waaree Transpower’s expansion in the global battery energy storage market. It also expands Waaree Transpower’s export business and its supply of electrical infrastructure for energy storage applications

Waaree Transpower, formerly known as Kotsons, designs and manufactures distribution and power transformers, substations, and customized electrical equipment. The company supplies equipment for utilities, renewable energy projects, and industrial applications in India and international markets.

Last year, Waaree acquired a 64% stake in Kotsons for ₹1.92 billion (~21.79 million), which was later renamed Waaree Transpower.

This March, the Board of Directors of Waaree Energies approved an investment of ₹1.9 billion (~$20.32 million) in Waaree Transpower, increasing its stake in the company to 75.1%.

Waaree Renewable Technologies is expanding its transmission and distribution (T&D) business following its acquisition of a 55% stake in Associated Power Structures (APSPL) for approximately ₹12.25 billion (~$133.6 million). During the first quarter of the financial year 2027, APSPL executed transmission orders worth over ₹33 billion (~$341.96 million) and had a project pipeline exceeding ₹27 billion (~$279.79 million).

India has targeted expanding its power transmission network by 137,500 circuit km of lines and 827,600 MVA of substation capacity, at an estimated cost of ₹7.93 trillion (~$84.33 billion), to support 900 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by the financial year 2035-36, according to the Central Electricity Authority.
